Canada Must Arrest George W. Bush if he Enters Canada by Gail Davidson, Lawyers Against War (LAW) Vancouver, B.C. — An upcoming planned speaking engagement in Canada by former President George W.

On June 14, 2011 Carlos Hernandez, the mayor of Hialeah, a city in Miami-Dade County, “honored” the FBI and CIA funded terrorist Luis Posada Carriles by giving him the key to the city. As many know, there is overwhelming evidence linking Luis Posada Carriles to the mid-flight bombing of a Cuban airliner, which killed 73 people, on October 6, 1976. In addition, there is ample evidence Posada was involved in the Hotel Copacabana bombing in Havana that killed Italian tourist, Fabio Di Celmo, in 1997.
While Miami officials shamelessly “honor” the anti-Cuban terrorist Posada, the Cuban Five anti-terrorists have remained imprisoned for over 13 years. In 2001, the five men were convicted for spying on the US military and Cuban exiles in southern Florida. However, the men say they weren’t spying on the U.S. government. “Sure.

No one volunteers to serve in this army. The All-Involuntary Army (of Labor) As has always been true, the coexistence of idling workplaces and cast-off workers remains the single most severe indictment of capitalism as a system for the reproduction of human society. After all, what made the Great Depression “great” was not only the staggering level of unemployment (no less true in various earlier periods of economic collapse), but its duration.

One Officer Injured Mayor W. Toronto's RSM. Students involved in the Proletarian Revolutionary Action Committee have just launched the Toronto Revolutionary Students Movement. This past Wednesday, on clubs day at the University of Toronto, they worked at a booth, flyered the student body, and engaged with students who were interested, or at the very least curious, about the possibility of revolutionary communism. Although they are beginning as a small group of fellow activists, they still managed to show their presence by dropping a large "big character" poster from a nearby overpass.The Revolutionary Student Movement in Toronto is hoping to link itself to the Revolutionary Student Movement in Quebec (or, more precisely, the Mouvement Étudiant Révolutionnaire) and is even planning on a multi-city conference between various revolutionary student groups (such as the Marxist Student Association in Ottawa), a possibility which is rather exciting.

Opinion.inquirer. I’m astonished by those who say we shouldn’t be taking the WikiLeaks leaks seriously. Why ever not? They are not rumors, they are not speculations, they are not theories. They are facts. But of course the US Embassy is not going to comment on them. They cannot dispute the leaks’ veracity. And nothing could be more compromising. I did say a couple of months ago when we were saber-rattling over the Spratlys that it was all well and good that we had discovered feistiness and assertiveness in the face of a bullying neighbor, an emergent world economic superpower if not a certified political one, but that it would be even finer and better if we could do the same thing vis-à-vis a certified world political superpower, if a patently declining economic one, that had been bullying us for more than a hundred years.
That’s the truly mind-boggling thing about the WikiLeaks leaks. But that’s nothing compared to our own contribution to America meddling in our affairs. Truly, mind-boggling. Kasama.
